Police are investigating reports of an assault on a 15-year-old boy.
Yesterday, mum Joanne Birch told the ECHO her son, who is autistic and has epilepsy, was attacked by two adult men as he walked home that morning. She said the men, who she believed to be in their 20s or 30s, punched her son and threw a can of lager at him on the corner of Modred Street and Vining Street in Toxteth.
Merseyside Police are now conducting witness and CCTV inquiries into the incident. Officers are appealing for witnesses to come forward.
